    Think this is the issue with the raised neck....little bit of sanding should do it... does stick up 1-2 mm..

    Yep, or a cabinet scraper. If you've not got one, a Stanley blade will suffice and a good pair of gloves, don't want to slip holding a naked blade!

    That spalted top is fantastic. Two kits too! What a great surprise. Glad you sorted something with Adam (having a couple on the go is a lot more fun).

    Neck is sanded to 240 ready for the Wudtone, stock cut also, not my best ever job but it will have to do.

    Done a lot of reseaching in advance, looked at the Pitbull vids for wiring the pots, they have the capacitor on each tone pot soldered to the middle connection then onto the top as an earth, Saw another vid where the guy has them from the middle connection on the tone across to the left of the volume control....

    No doubt both work (I think) but whats the reasoning behind it?
